Description

Method for detecting LiDAR point cloud data abnormality and related equipment
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of information, in particular to a method and related equipment for detecting LiDAR point cloud data anomalies.
Background
Light detection and ranging (light detection and ranging, liDAR) systems are used for mapping, measurement, and object detection, among other uses. LIDAR has many applications including robotic, navigation, autopilot, or other similar applications. The LIDAR system emits laser light and detects reflections in the emitted laser light. By measuring the time-of-flight (TOF) between the emission of the laser light and the detection of the reflected laser light, the distance between the LIDAR unit and the object that reflected the laser light can be calculated.
However, liDAR has a physically executable vulnerability due to technical features. LiDAR emits and receives laser light from LiDAR to surrounding objects. In more detail, a particular object reflects a laser signal from a LiDAR, and the laser signal is returned to a receiver in the LiDAR. An attacker may apply this principle on LiDAR distance measurement to vulnerabilities. Since no attack threat is considered, liDAR receives a duplicate laser signal even if it is an attack on the laser signal. Thus, liDAR point cloud data that is attacked via an attack can lead to false identification of surrounding objects. Under other threats, attack models have been proposed as untrusted machine learning models and deep learning models for object detection by generating resistant objects from point clouds in LiDAR. These vulnerability and attack models are serious threats to driver and pedestrian safety in autopilot. Abnormality detection and intrusion detection methods for LiDAR are required to improve the safety of automatic driving.

Detailed Description
The technical scheme of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram of a LiDAR scanning system.
As shown in fig. 1, the LiDAR scanning system 100 may include at least one LiDAR sensor 101, a preprocessing module 102, and a perception module 103.
The LiDAR scanning system may be coupled to a host system. Host systems may include, but are not limited to, three-dimensional object scanners, vehicle control systems for automated parking assistance, automated driver assistance (e.g., blind spot and collision avoidance), semi-automated or fully automated driving, robotic navigation systems, security cameras, monitoring or surveillance systems, sensor networks for monitoring or surveillance of environmental areas.
LiDAR sensor 101 may include a laser source and a detector subsystem including one or more detectors, such as one or more avalanche photodiodes (avalanche photodiode, APDs), charge-coupled device (CCD) sensors, complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) sensors, or microelectromechanical systems (micro-electro-mechanical system) sensors.
A laser source comprising one or more laser emitters is used to generate and transmit laser light, such as a laser beam. The laser source may generate a gaussian beam. The laser source may transmit a pulsed laser (e.g., a pulsed beam). The laser source typically emits Infrared (IR) light, such as Near Infrared (NIR) light, but may emit one or more types of visible and/or possibly Ultraviolet (UV) light in addition to or instead of infrared light. The laser source may include a plurality of laser emitters, each for transmitting a different type of light. In one example, each of the plurality of laser emitters is configured to transmit infrared light or a respective one of one or more types of visible light. In one example, the plurality of laser emitters includes an infrared laser emitter for transmitting infrared light, a blue laser emitter for transmitting blue light, a red laser emitter for transmitting red light, and a green laser emitter for transmitting green light. The lasers may be controlled to transmit laser beams simultaneously or non-simultaneously.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other light sources, such as LEDs, may be suitable for replacing the laser source. However, such an alternative must take into account the system requirements and may be accompanied by additional modifications, such as collimation, to meet the requirements.
The detector subsystem detects the reflected laser light using one or more detectors, generates and outputs a raw data signal corresponding to the received laser light, which is sent to the preprocessing module 102.
The LiDAR sensor may be a single channel LiDAR sensor or a multi-channel LiDAR sensor.
The preprocessing module 102 may be used to receive raw data signals from the LiDAR sensor 101. The raw data signal may include the distance from each point to the LiDAR sensor 101 and the azimuth of each point. The preprocessing module may also be used to convert the raw data signals into LiDAR point cloud data in (x, y, z) format. The values of x, y, z are the projections of the polar coordinates on a cartesian coordinate system. The preprocessing module 102 forwards the LiDAR point cloud data to the perception module 103.
The perception module 103 may be used to determine a distance from the LIDAR scanning system 100 to one or more objects in the environment of the LIDAR scanning system 100, and/or to determine a location and a type of the object.
According to the LiDAR scanning system 100 shown in FIG. 1, an attacker may reside between the preprocessing module 102 and the perception module 103, impersonating itself as the preprocessing module to modify LiDAR point cloud data.
FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of a LiDAR scanning system according to an embodiment of the present application.
Compared to the LiDAR scanning system 100 shown in FIG. 1, the LiDAR scanning system 200 shown in FIG. 2 has an added detection module 204.
The function of the LiDAR sensor 202 is similar to that of the LiDAR sensor 101. The function of the preprocessing module 202 is similar to that of the preprocessing module 102, except that the preprocessing module 202 forwards LiDAR point cloud data to the detection module 204 instead of the perception module 203. The detection module 204 may be configured to receive the LiDAR point cloud data from the preprocessing module 202, determine whether a point in the LiDAR point cloud data is a normal point or an abnormal point, and forward the normal point to the sensing module 203. The awareness module 203 may be used to determine the distance from the LiDAR scanning system 200 to one or more objects in the environment of the LiDAR scanning system 200 and/or to determine the location and type of the object.
The detection module 204 may be used to detect whether a point in LiDAR point cloud data has been tampered with or injected by an attacker. In other words, if a point in the LiDAR point cloud data is not determined from the raw data signals acquired by the LiDAR sensor 201 (i.e., an outlier), the detection module 204 may identify the point. This ensures that all points in the LiDAR point cloud data received by the sensing module 203 are determined from the raw data signals acquired by the LiDAR sensors (i.e., normal points).
Alternatively, the detection module 204 may be located within the trust boundary of the perception module 203. This may further ensure the security of the LiDAR scanning system.
The function of the detection module 204 is described below in connection with fig. 3.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for detecting LiDAR point cloud data anomalies. The method shown in fig. 3 may be performed by the detection module 204.
And 301, acquiring first position information, wherein the first position information indicates the position of a target data point in LiDAR point cloud data.
302, determining second position information corresponding to the target data point according to the specification of the LiDAR sensor.
303, determining that the target data point is an outlier or a normal point based on the first location information and the second location information.
The target data point is any one point in the LiDAR point cloud data.
Optionally, in some embodiments, the first location information may include an azimuth of the target data point and a vertical of the target data point.
As described above, the detection module 204 receives LiDAR point cloud data from the preprocessing module 202. The preprocessing module 202 converts the raw data signals into LiDAR point cloud data in (x, y, z) format. In other words, when the detection module 204 receives LiDAR point cloud data, the detection module 204 obtains coordinates of the target data point in a Cartesian coordinate system. The first location information may be obtained according to the following formula:
(x, y, z) is the coordinates of the target data point in a Cartesian coordinate system, ω is the vertical angle of the target data point, α is the azimuth angle of the target data point, and δ is the horizontal angular offset, which is a predefined constant value. Alpha + delta is the horizontal angle of the target data point. In other words, according to equations 1.1-1.3, the vertical and horizontal angles of the target data point may be obtained, and the azimuth of the target data point may be obtained according to the horizontal angle and predefined horizontal angle offset of the target data point.
Optionally, in some embodiments, determining the second location information corresponding to the target data point according to the specification of the LiDAR sensor includes: determining a plurality of pieces of position information according to the specification of the LiDAR sensor, wherein each piece of position information corresponds to a data point, and each piece of position information comprises an azimuth angle of the corresponding data point and a vertical angle of the corresponding data point; and determining second position information from the plurality of pieces of position information according to the first position information, wherein a difference between an azimuth angle included in the second position information and an azimuth angle included in the first position information is smaller than a difference between an azimuth angle included in any one of the plurality of pieces of position information other than the second position information and an azimuth angle included in the first position information, and a difference between a vertical angle included in the second position information and a vertical angle included in the first position information is smaller than a difference between a vertical angle included in any one of the plurality of pieces of position information other than the second position information and a vertical angle included in the first position information.
The specifications of the LiDAR sensor include: horizontal angular resolution, emission spacing, number of channels of the LiDAR sensor, vertical angle of each channel, and horizontal angular offset of each channel.
The horizontal angular resolution, emission interval, and number of channels of the LiDAR sensor determine the number of possible horizontal and vertical angle pairs. The possible values of azimuth per frame may be determined from the horizontal angular resolution and the transmission interval. Specifically, the quotient of the horizontal angular resolution and the transmission interval is a possible value of the azimuth angle per frame. If the quotient of the horizontal angular resolution and the emission interval is not an integer, the quotient may be rounded down/up/rounded down to obtain the possible value. For each azimuth, the number of channels of the LiDAR sensor is the number of possible horizontal and vertical angle pairs. The value of the vertical angle in each horizontal-vertical angle pair may be determined from the vertical angle of the corresponding channel. The value of the horizontal angle of each horizontal-vertical angle pair may be determined according to the horizontal angle resolution, and the value of the azimuth angle corresponding to each horizontal-vertical angle pair may be determined according to the horizontal angle of each horizontal-vertical angle pair and the horizontal angle offset of the corresponding channel. For example, the azimuth angle may be determined according to the following equation:
is the horizontal angle in the ith horizontal-vertical angle pair in the frame, which corresponds to the jth channel, delta, of the LiDAR sensor i Is the horizontal angular offset of the jth channel, alpha i Is the azimuth corresponding to the i-th horizontal-vertical angle pair.
Assuming a single return mode 32 channel LiDAR sensor, the emission interval is 55.52 microseconds and the horizontal angular resolution is 10Hz. For each frame there are about 1801 (=10 Hz/55.52 microseconds) possible values of azimuth. For each azimuth there are 32 possible horizontal and vertical angle pairs. The 32 possible pairs of horizontal and vertical angles are in one-to-one correspondence with the 32 channels of the LiDAR sensor. There are 1801 x 32 horizontal-vertical angle pairs per frame. Thus, there is 1801×32 pieces of position information. 1801×32 pieces of position information are in one-to-one correspondence with 1801×32 horizontal-vertical angle pairs. Each positional information includes an azimuth angle and a vertical angle of a corresponding horizontal-vertical angle pair, wherein the azimuth angle of the corresponding horizontal-vertical angle pair can be determined according to equation 1.4. The second location information is one of 1801×32 pieces of location information. The process of finding the second location in 1801×32 pieces of location information may be performed quickly by binary search or parallel operation.
Optionally, in some embodiments, determining that the target data point is an outlier or a normal point based on the first location information and the second location information includes: determining an anomaly score based on the first location information and the second location information; the target data point is determined to be an outlier or a normal point based on the outlier score.
Optionally, in some embodiments, determining the anomaly score from the first location information and the second location information includes: the anomaly score is determined according to the following formula:
S anom =|α-α near |+|ω-ω near i, (equation 1.5)
S anom Is an anomaly score, alpha is an azimuth angle included in the first position information, alpha near Is the azimuth angle included in the second position information, ω is the vertical angle included in the first position information, and ω near Is the vertical angle included in the second position information.
Optionally, in some embodiments, determining the anomaly score from the first location information and the second location information includes: the anomaly score is determined according to the following formula:
S anom is an anomaly score, alpha is an azimuth angle included in the first position information, alpha near Is the azimuth angle included in the second position information, ω is the vertical angle included in the first position information, and ω near Is the vertical angle included in the second position information.
Optionally, in some embodiments, determining the anomaly score from the first location information and the second location information includes: the anomaly score is determined according to the following formula:
S anom =|α-α near i, (equation 1.7)
S anom Is an anomaly score, alpha is an azimuth angle included in the first position information, alpha near Is the azimuth included in the second location information. In this case, the first location information may include only the azimuth of the target data point. Accordingly, the second location information may be location information including an azimuth nearest to the target data point.
Optionally, in some embodiments, determining that the target data point is an outlier or a normal point based on the outlier score comprises: when the anomaly score is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, determining the target data point as an anomaly point; when the anomaly score is less than a preset threshold, the target data point is determined to be a normal point.
Further, if the target data point is a normal point, the target data point may be forwarded to the perception module 203. If the target data point is an outlier, the target data point may be discarded.
It is difficult for an attacker to know all specifications of LiDAR and calculate all points in real time. The present application can detect attacks without delay by performing relatively low computational operations. Meanwhile, the method and the device can be used with other intrusion detection systems at or behind the sensing module, so that the detection rate can be improved. Furthermore, the present application may be a suitable intrusion detection system when used in a limited volume vehicle, because it has a lower computational complexity than detection methods of other sensor (e.g., camera, GPS) outputs.
Alternatively, the detection module for performing the method shown in fig. 3 may be located within the trust boundary of the perception module to detect such attacks.
